UNIgames Open House!

Meet & chat with UNIgames’ staff Jeff Dee and Talzhemir Mrr!

Think of it as a free, virtual visit to our convention booth. We’ll take questions about our games, our future plans, our past careers, and even run quick demos. And there’ll be a door prize!

To visit the UNIgames open house, all you need is a a browser. Just click on the link in the top post. Roll20 will walk you through account creation if needed. If you don’t have a headset microphone you can still chat by text. Camera is optional; we’ll probably ask folks to turn ’em off for bandwidth anyway. You don’t have to stay for the whole thing – come and go as you please! We’ll see you there 🙂

P.S.: Remember to ‘spring forward’ for Daylight Savings Time on March 8!

FOLLOWUP: The UNIgames Open House was a big success! We had a bunch of visitors – far more than we’d have in a comparable amount of time at an actual convention. Much thanks to everyone who attended. We apologize for disappearing without warning right near the end. Our internet connection helpfully went out for a bit :/

We’ll host another Open House next month. See you all then!

UNIgames Publishes Béthorm: the Plane of Tékumel RPG

Bethorm cover UNIgames is pleased to announce the release of the PDF edition of Béthorm: the Plane of Tékumel RPG!

Produced under an agreement with the TĂ©kumel Foundation, BĂ©thorm revives the first complete tabletop RPG setting ever published, in TSR Hobbies’ Empire of the Petal Throne RPG (1975).

Far in the future, humans and their alien allies conquer and terraform the lush planet TĂ©kumel. A disaster casts TĂ©kumel’s star system into a pocket dimension. Cut off from Humanspace, civilizations rise and fall as the descendants revert to savagery – while also mastering the forces of magic which operate in TĂ©kumel’s new universe. Become a member of a secret society within your temple, or a sorcerer mastering ancient spells. Be a diplomat engaged in foreign intrigue, a wealthy bravo seeking adventure, a scholar studying secrets of the ancient past… TĂ©kumel offers a whole world of exotic adventures!

Béthorm: the Plane of Tékumel RPG features over 100 illustrations.
